As the cold and wet weather creeps up on us, we tend to bundle up tight with our pets in warm blankets in our homes. Sadly, the same is not true for all companion animals. 

However, in collaboration with Mdzananda Animal Clinic in Khayelitsha, we’ve identified responsible pet owners who, despite financial hardship, prioritise their pets' health. They attend every vet appointment, ensure sterilisation, and keep vaccinations up to date. However, they need a helping hand to continue caring for the pets they love.

Last year, you showed up for the companion animals of Khayelitsha. We call on you to do it again!
